How I Installed Soil Pipe To My Shed (RUINED GARDEN!)

[@plumberparts]

A few words on depths - always go deeper than I did here and aim for 750mm deep everytime.

£14 for a pipe That is a pricey pipe

What a cracking video James. You've outdone yourself with this one. You've got what we've all got who are 40+ and it's like watching myself... Memory loss when leaving an area, wondering why you're knackered from labouring, sleeping like a log after a long day's graft, then baby waking you up at the crack of dawn, singing songs from decades ago that are wasted on today's youth. Best thing I ever did was install a bog in my car port. Sick of waiting for the Mrs to finish pretending to wee, then going in after her needing a gas mask, nope, head out to the car port (has front doors on it) and lay a track in the open air breeze, nothing quite like the feel of the crisp morning air on your derrière! Keep up the great work James!

[@plumberparts]

Cheers man! I’m singing Genesis (Selling England By The Pound) in this week’s vid!

[@penningtoncolin]

Hi James as a groundworker you shouldn't have 90 on a foul you should of removed the chamber and put 45 bends on the main channel, I know it will work but a building inspector would pull you on that mate ,just saying 😂 love you videos very informative pal

[@paulblundell8033]

Agree with others who said about running a new armoured plus if there is an office going down there run some CAT6 as well ( external or armoured ( or both in one !))

[@mrspudly1]

[@Excel510]

Great video in your usual flamboyant up beat delivery, well done sir , a pleasure to watch, please keep em coming. take care.

[@scottnever8732]

love your videos. Don't you need rodding access when changing direction?

[@markbradley6993]

Well done James, Might have been an ideal time to upgrade and lay armoured cable to replace the existing while you were trenching for drain. Sure there is always next time. The videos are great keep them coming, Mark

[@Brown969]

If you can, put the spoil from your pool under the topsoil. I didnt do this when raising my lawn and its mostly clay and rubbish lawn now 🙄 Wish I'd scrapped the topsoil back and used the spoil to build up. Lesson learnt 😅

[@digitaria]

check the regs again i am sure the peas have to be a minimum of 10mm, and it should cover the pipe, according to the regs illustration drawings i have seen. i will revisit that bit of paper shortly, but please clarify.

[@kamranrazvi7522]

This is exactly what i was looking for, Please can I ask… What is the distance between that shed and the inspection chamber on the patio? Will it work fine at that long distance? What is the total drop from the shed to the inspection chamber?

[@Thespecialone1970]

Nice one Jimmy! Looking forward to seeing the pool video!

[@georgereynolds6497]

Hi James great video , I am thinking on doing to online course you have . Does it cover hanging radiators ? cheers

[@Andrew-ki5jz]

Hi James,not sure if you have follow up video, as i would have liked to have seen the toilet waste pipe also showing full pipework to the air vent smell pipe,how they sit and all connections, thanks 👍

[@andrewthomson3165]

Also building regs have you got permission for toilet in shed?

[@500pints]

M8 love the videos. Put a small inch and a half duct for the electrical cable when your at it.

[@newdoo105]

Great timing on this, ill be doing a similar job hopefully within a week. Great tips

[@c42cly]

No pool digging footage:(. Nice 4 inch, should have run some ducting for any future wires etc alongside your soil pipe. Concrete pool or a liner .....?

[@plumberparts]

Liner. Full video about the install being filmed as we speak! Will be out when the whole project is complete.

[@Martin37vg]

Just done my drains for my extentioni I am building . My building control officer said I had to pea gravel 100mm above aswell as 100mm below . Never said I needed marker tape.. I was quite deep so not worried.

[@kingspunkbubble]

I’ve pondered the installation of toilets in unusual spaces many times, yeh I know, and I’ve thought about using a macerator. Maybe you lot have different opinions about this. I remember a place where I worked had one and often it had problems. Perhaps there are really good ones available?

[@mnshp7548]

wd 40 as lubricant ? doesnt that hurt the rubber washers over time, as ive had loads of issues if engine oil got on rubber before

[@feargalmulvany3273]

It's a silicone spray made by WD40, it won't harm or dry out the rubber seals 👍

[@bikerchrisukk]

Nice one James, did the identical job end of last year, about the same length as yours but did it by hand as I had to stop and start all the time (work calls eh!).

[@KDParry-qb7jv]

You need an inspection chamber above any change of pipe direction over 30 degrees, you have 2 at 90 degrees, should have used a more sweeping angle on the first one

[@artomxxx]

You left out how you were singing at Ridgeons… that’s how I recognised you lol. It was so surreal to bump into you like that and never knew you were local. HOLD TIGHT!

[@dimitar4y]

"Oh, that's where that bloke is. Might give him a ring if I need me plumbing done, ey?" - you, probably

[@plumberparts]

Haha! Cheers man! Always singing!

[@jonathanhasmail]

Haha, I’ve not heard of Ridgeons since leaving Norfolk over 30 years ago, used to head to the Rocklands one with my old man to pick up building materials for home alterations. Didn’t think it’d still be around (although it looks like it’s part of Huws & Gray now).

[@Hayseboy]

Digger has a quick hitch on it u shouldn’t have to use ur muscles to change bucket the digger does it for you. Great work 💪🏻👍🏻

[@murrayblyth3932]

Don’t you do a CAT sweep before you break ground to check for pipes n cables? And as you go deep (oh Mrs)

[@over-engineered]

my understanding is that the pea gravel is also intended to flow under the pipe in case of the soil subsiding underneath.

[@davidstevens1547]

Nice Job James. So much work but better to do it now than later. Never seen a rat trap in a drain but seems a good idea. Await more on your Swimming pool.

[@christipler5067]

Should have bought the pea shingle in 1tonne bags - much cheaper and you would be able to cover the pipe completely!

[@BcMzRusT]

I was surprised at that too, especially while having the digger!

[@stevekent3991]

A compost loo is a good alternative

[@dimitar4y]

"little office" how many months until renting it out

[@buaan]

I had a laugh when you knocked that rustic step, that's something I'd have done!

[@timstradling7764]

Well done James, I can tell this is not your favourite part of plumbing. I’ve got a soft spot for it as it was my first job on the building over 50 years ago. Little tip, clean up the raggy inside edge of the pipe before fitting so it doesn’t pick up on paper or worse and be the start of a blockage.😊

[@padraigdonnelly1652]

James why didn't you put in an a.j where the last 45° bend and the last 90°bend is at the corner of the shed

[@deanos102]

who laid the water pipe, looks very shallow 😮

[@kingspunkbubble]

Yes, lots of bones when you dig the garden. I think it’s from cats and foxes raiding the bin bags back in the day before wheelies.

[@birbinhio]

Wish I could do this. What’s your secret to running a business, doing your own projects and looking after a baby? Honestly when I saw you was having a little one I thought that’s the last I’ll see of him for a while on KZbin, and now you’re building a swimming pool!!

[@andygreenwood485]

Use pea gravel because it’s non compactable and won’t crush the pipe

[@Nibbler007]

I have a hot water bathroom tap that is leaking but i cannot get the thread out as its full of limescale. Any advice?

[@bled83]

Google it.

[@inn3491]

[@andymiles5156]

I wanted to move an outside hopper by a meter and was told it would need a building inspector. They want to see the pipe before it is covered up, and again afterwards.

[@dimitar4y]

that's how regs work, waste your time to do paperwork, it's how they get paid 10x your salary for 1/1000 of the time.

[@Terryb31]

Did you mean it when you told us you were running it "DOWN" to the shed. Surely you mean to run it down FROM the shed. ?

[@dimitar4y]

gall Juice!

[@polomint46]

Might be wrong, but putting in a soil waste now means shed needs to meet building regs! It's a living space!

[@polomint46]

That also means planning permission! And your wood shed can no longer be on the boundary. Life's a bugger sometimes.

[@skygod1975]

Id say he's met regs to install a toilet at the end of his garden. It won't add value to his property when selling as it won't be classed as a habitable space.

[@dimitar4y]

Ah the good old two finger precision joystick control method................ Keep cracking on you madman

[@plumberparts]

😂

[@jayseabie215]

Did you actually calculate if you had enough fall on the drain before you started? 1:80 is the standard, you don't need more. The easiest way to do it while working is cut a 1 metre batten and nail a small wedge to one end sufficient to give a 1:80 fall when the batten is sitting level on top of the pipe using a spirit level. Once the run is finished put a marble down the drain and see if it comes out the other end. If its doesn't, then you've f*@ked up. Also it was lucky how you had a blanked off end in that chamber to start with. If you're top of the system they could have just put a 90 on that instead which would have meant digging out the chamber too.

[@plumberparts]

It might not come across in the video, but there's a slope gradient in the garden that almost BOB ON for a good fall. I just had to follow it. Tested afterwards. All good. Although I like your marble idea - think I lost mine ages ago!

[@dazmatic]

I have to laugh - nearly every video I've seen where soil drainage is installed the inspection chamber is nowhere near the 600mm document H says it's meant to be. Yours is really shallow!

[@plumberparts]

That’s the 1930’s for you (when these houses were built and we’re at the end of the line so can’t go lower - it’s so annoying!)

[@dazmatic]

@@plumberparts I've recently done similar, dug out from chamber at back to my garage, 12m run. Chamber is 600 deep, but ground slopes downwards towards the garage. At the garage end, the pipe is about 100mm deep. Backfilled with shingle and concrete capping. I don't feel half as bad about it now seeing yours 🤣

[@markdavies794]

@@dazmatic What would have been the option if the garage was lower than the chamber? I want to put a waste water pipe from my shed to an existing pipe but my shed is lower than the pipe and I have no idea how I could round that.

[@dazmatic]

@@markdavies794 another option I looked at was potentially a macerator pump. That can be lower than the main drain or chamber and it'll just pump upwards. I didn't go that route for the extra work and expense.
